About Ghent

Ghent's North Sea Port—formed by the merger with Zeeland Seaports—handles over 70 million tonnes of cargo annually, with direct access to the North Sea via the Ghent–Terneuzen Canal. The city sits at the E40/E17 motorway junction and lies within 60 km of both Antwerp and Zeebrugge, giving road freight operators multiple routing options across Belgium's dense port network.

Belgian customs offices in Ghent process clearances for heavy-industry goods including steel coils from ArcelorMittal, Volvo Cars components, and petrochemical bulk shipments. T1 transit declarations for Serbian-origin cargo are handled at port and inland customs points, with bonded warehouse options for deferred duty payment.

Fin Partner manages the approximately 1,700 km Serbia–Ghent corridor, combining road transport with intermodal port connections. We handle customs formalities for industrial and oversized loads, coordinate with North Sea Port terminals, and arrange return-load planning for the Balkans route.
